Players can now acquire them by completing and winning matches. Plus, new Premium DLC Skins and Pre-Set outfits allow gamers to unlock Premium vanity items at a reduced Relic cost.

And between September 2-16, the Uncharted 4 Multiplayer Store will offer discounts from 33% to 62% on all DLC Relic chests. The 1.12 patch also comes with updates to Ranked Team Deathmatch and a new set of rewards for Season 2.

The Lost Treasures DLC, meanwhile, presented a small map based on some areas from the single-player campaign. Sunken Ruins is a fast-paced map with tight fronts and some hidden water flank routes.

Patch 1.08, just over 1.3GB in size, also brought the Level system and the Rank system with special rewards. Notably, players can now purchase DLC Gameplay Chests with Relics, and use the Path of Indra, the new Mystical for teleporting to any ally.

According to Lowe, Uncharted 4 will receive a further DLC update in September. It will add a new map, game-type, and personalization items.

Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End picks up several years after the events of Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception. The game follows series protagonist Nathan Drake, his older brother Sam and longtime partner Sully. They are looking for the long-lost treasure of infamous pirate Captain Henry Avery.
